Collusion. where you collude / work with another person or persons to trick / lie to others.

Most of these stunning magic tricks appear to be done in front of random people but with people like Kris Angel the people you see gasping in the video's are his team.

The floating bus trick also uses studio scenes and cuts to trick the watcher. When he floats up beside the bus that is a green screen in a studio with him on wires, same with the end bit where he floats down, the last added on scene is the little plop to earth he does beside the bus, all added later.

Otherwise a false prosthetic arm was made, the fact it seems to be a bare arm tricks the mind because there's clearly nothing up the sleeve, well not his real arm anyway. The rigid fake arm goes out to a body brace holding him up, basically a variation on the Indian bloke floating by a stick.

His loose jacket covers the fact his real arm is under the coat.

Just going to look at the Darts trick now..I'm pretty sure him and the woman will be in on it if its what I think it is.

There are numerous cuts but there's one that gives the secret away, if you look at the two dart boards while he writes the prediction there are NO darts in the second board yet as he seems to write the prediction and walk immediately to the folk in the next room and bring them in then there's suddenly darts in the second board she uses.

Proof that there's cuts, since the people were very wooden I'd suspect they were very much in on it for a few quid and a bit of TV fame, a little non disclosure agreement signed by them would be enough to keep them quiet and even if they did tell a few mates its not exactly a huge deal because we know its a trick from the outset, its how he does it that is the interesting bit and I'm afraid many like David Blaine simply use paid stooges.

Dynamo does the same stuff in an earlier video when he seems to walk through a shop window but is actually covered by his minders, all the crowd on the outside see the way its done but a few free tickets to a show or whatever and they all just laugh and forget it.

Those are the types of illusions I hate, using paid stooges to pretend they have seen something wonderful is just so cheap, I much prefer a clever trick that only involves him so its down to you the watcher to work it out.

The biggest fraud on the Magic scene is Kris Angel, almost all his tricks revolve around stooges he has for a team, most seen in every one of his video's. His other fraud is the use of camera / SFX, The walking in air and his bike jump were just a series of studio sfx shots edited together and using FX programs to hide wires and platforms.

For me that isn't the Magic I grew up with, the tricks were clever deceptions done in front of a live audience with no cuts, to just make it all in a studio and put it out as a TV programme is rubbish.
